Bosnia and Herzegovina Travel Podcast with Amina Begović

Travelling in Bosnia and Herzegovina means moving between the joint Bosniak/Croat Federation and the Republika Srpska, over mountains and through valleys, from Ottoman-era bridges to Austro-Hungarian facades. This podcast is about how those layers of history sit beside each other in daily life, and what a visitor needs to know to read them. Across the series she moves from the old town of Sarajevo to the Neretva at Mostar, then north to Banja Luka and the karst fields of Popovo Polje near Trebinje. Each place introduces the valley, the river, or the borderland that shaped it, and the host returns to them as connections become clear. The podcast unfolds with the seasons, returning to the same streets and foothills when the inland valleys lose their snow and when the coast is wet and mild. This slow accumulation of knowing somewhere properly is the point; the episodes treat the country's valleys and highlands as places to revisit, not to tick off. Amina Begović li
